The Fibre Co. Leonida Sweater PDF

Named for the Leonids meteor shower, this top-down seamless sweater is an homage to an astronomical wonder. Every 33 years the Leonids storm creates a spectacular show, of which this sweater beautifully illustrates in two shades of The Fibre Co. Lore. Featuring a bold pattern of stylized meteors round the yoke, the Leonida Sweater is a beautiful statement sweater that is as fun to knit as it is to wear! The colorwork pattern is in chart form only.
